I would take this a step further, and point out that for *interactive*
code - i.e. typed at the ipython prompt - it's probably easier to do
"from numpy import *".
I'd also like to reiterate that scipy does not provide a function
"array". If you import scipy, for some strange reason, it sets
scipy.array to numpy.array - that is, for some reason scipy provides
copies of a large number of numpy functions. Not reimplementations,
not accelerated versions, just exactly the same functions under
different names. Why is this?
